Are Jaffa Cakes a cake or a biscuit?
Who else loves Jaffa Cakes?
That's fighting talk! (or hate speech :c)
You take that back, you dirty "Jaffist", you !!
(With Autists, we tend to be very literal, so my tongue in cheek comment there, using as it does inflammatory and accusatory language, could easily be misread, whereas this sort of humour seems to be the very stuff of normie society. It is intended to cause slight amusement on behalf of the person it is aimed at).
Perhaps a more honest and Autistic way to comment would be, "Wow, what you dislike are the very things I like most! One can either eat them in bits and enjoy the interplay of textures and tastes as the manufacturer intended or one can carefully eat the chocolate first, (any other approach is very messy, without using some sort of freezing spray) then (if one is feeling adventurous) then the cake, OR the orangey bit (tm).
I had a marks and sparks jaffa cakes (I Think they were a dark or red fruit) cause me a painful reaction in my mouth, they tasted delicious, but I just couldn't eat 'em.
Well I could, but I assumed my body was trying to tell me something important, so I didn't.
Love them and order them every week in my online grocery shopping!
Now, I feel hunger for Jaffa cakes, but the shops are closed.
At last a topic I can really get my teeth into...
I have never seen that before. I would certainly have at least 20 of them
WOW, I would give it a go as well
It's all good... the whole thing goes in my gob in one go any shape.
That being said I haven't had one of these bad boys before...
that's an odd shape for them
I will happily devour any jaffa cake put within my reach. Well perhaps not "Kidney & Brussel Sprout" flavour or some such.
I do particularly like dark chocolate ones so I went to M&S today
awesome enjoy
Jaffa cakes from today's shopping trip.
It obviously looks like a biscuit. Take a look at how they are packaged and what size they are. But by all standards, the fact that moisture content is greater than 12% is already called cake. That really sounds weird to me. To me, they're biscuits anyway. I liked them long before. I often bought them, but after a while, I realized that they were not healthy at all, so I gave up. I only consume authentic dark chocolate, which I buy from [link deleted by moderator]. This is the only chocolate I eat at the moment because it seems to me to be the tastiest and with the fewest additions.
Ok but...anyone else hate Jaffa cakes with a passion though? Like I'm not normally a sensory person but that chocolate, squigy jelly, soft biscuit texture is just too much
I've seen pineapple also
now i'm hungry
Today I bought some Jaffa's, including the Raspberry one's.
I think I missed out strawberry.
I was asking one of our contributers why he kept changing his name, he said, "because I can.", So I tried and it worked.
Wouldn't advise that, I only found out from your post about all the flavours there are! Marks and Spencers are terrible for changing things, it is one of the few stores I will go to when quiet as it's a small foodhall in my locality but I've stopped going because of that.
I cannot understand though why they still call them 'jaffa' cakes when those are oranges!
